Day 28: Leaving the West behind

This morning we had to leave our comfortable site at Cherry Creek State Park and start heading east.  We took I-255 and I-70 to connect to I-76 which goes northeast toward Nebraska.  Eastern Colorado is boring: flat, dry, very little vegetation, a few cows.  Entering Nebraska seemed almost exciting by contrast:

From here, we will travel along I-80 for the next few days, heading for Tim Dorgan's place in Iowa. (It's right outside Cedar Rapids; we hope the predicted flooding does not cause a problem getting there.)

With the time change (Mountain to Central) we lost an hour of travel time today.  We pulled into Holiday RV Park in North Platte in late afternoon. Not fancy, a bit old, but basically clean and satisfactory for one night.
